A.
The region's traditional written system is based on Chinese characters (classical Chinese), not on Korean. Korean uses its own alphabet, Hangul (created in the 15th century); historically Korea also used Chinese characters (hanja), but the written tradition across East Asia is rooted in Chinese characters rather than a "classical Korean script."
